When I saw the for sale add on this radio I could tell by the pics that it was in really good condition. I immediately sent him an email with my phone number attached. To my surprise he called me and said I could pick it up immediately if I wanted. needless to say I rushed over to his place. When I got to his neighborhood it was in a VERY rundown part of San Francisco. There were crackheads firing up right on the sidewalk in front of his building! We went up to his place and as soon as I saw the box I couldn't give him the money fast enough! It was in perfect condition.... ...all the chrome knobs and speaker covers are perfect, all knobs and switches move smooth and firm, the radio dial has a light for mono (yellow) and stereo (red), all meter lights work, both cassette decks work and play at the correct speed, all the labels and glass still have the original film covering them. This is the best condition radio I have ever found. It literally looks like it was just taken out of the box.
The young man selling it told me it had been stored inside of a box in the attic of his building and he found it by accident. I played with it for about 30 minutes and this thing cranks!! The bass is very deep and powerful and when adjusting the 5 band eq properly has very nice sound. I won't mention how much I paid for this gem, but it was a very, very, very good deal.... ...here are some pics...
